    Good work.
    I appreciate your approach to DOING IT RIGHT, not just getting it done.
    Cheers!

    I watching the back catalog of your videos, started with the Astra and working up to where I started with your chanenl around a year and a half back. These older videos are superb, the detail in the builds is great.

    Glad you use wellseal and it is still available. Always remember going into a local auto shop and asking for a tube. "You don't want to use that stuff, it's old fashioned now, people use Hylomar" thrusting a tube in my face. Hylomar is OK but not really in the same league. Something about the smell as well, takes me back to rebuilding Mini gearboxes. Looking forward to the next episode, as I can gloat over the chassis corrosion as my 5 year old Puma is still relatively rust free.

      @juicemotors  4 года назад +1

      Tony Packe Wellseal is the best! I’ve used hylomar previously however I find they’re limited to their uses and just don’t have the same longevity! I have fond memories in my old mini and have equal love for the other British icon! Thank you for your support 💛

      Anything below 200 000 km is reliable to a certain extent, rather get a 2001 td5 since they have the most reliable engine. If you're in the city you might wanna get a puma for speed or accelerating. But overall a TDI is the best for 4x4
